What Lola says about NFD?

 

Many Drama Schools and University Courses still prioritise acting for Theatre over TV and Film. This is a different skill set to that which screen acting requires; movements, expressions — even voice — are large, unnatural, and audience orientated, because this is what the Stage demands. At NFD we are all about Film and TV and that means we teach the acting skills that these media demand: naturalistic, intimate and camera aware. If your heart is in film and TV there is no point in developing the wrong skills elsewhere and then having to adapt them, go direct to the people who teach you the specific techniques you need to know to succeed in film & TV.

Limited Availability and Booking Information

Due to the popularity of our small courses, available places fill up quickly. Therefore, early booking is highly recommended to avoid disappointment. The next course begins on September 9, 2024.

About NFD Productions

NFD Productions primarily functions as a production company that firmly believes in the “Training while Creating philosophy.” This core philosophy underpins all actor training in our Film and TV Acting Course. Consequently, actors benefit from extensive professional filming equipment, which provides unique opportunities for them to work in our productions. For example, actors have worked alongside named talents such as Jamie Lomas and  Persephone Swales-Dawson, who were in our “Risk Takers” TV pilot.

Unique Training Approach

A unique two-tier approach provides opportunities on both non-commercial and commercial film sets. Initially, new students receive training on non-commercial film sets. As their acting abilities improve, they progress to commercial film sets.

Age Requirements and Special Cases

Adult students must be 21 or older to enrol. The young person section caters to ages 16 to 21, accessible HERE. Special individual cases for younger students may be considered upon discussion.

The supportive atmosphere and the practical, hands-on approach are exactly what I needed to build my confidence and skills.”

James “NFD offers a unique approach to actor training that I haven’t seen anywhere else. The ‘Training while Creating’ philosophy does set them apart. I started as a novice, but the small class sizes and individual attention helped me improve rapidly. 

Daniel “What makes NFD  the best in the area is their commitment to practical, hands-on learning. The small class sizes mean you get a lot of one-on-one and the feedback you receive is incredibly detailed. Being able to see your performance played back in a professional studio setting is a game-changer.”

Unlike other courses, where you’re just another face in a large hall, here you get to perform in a purpose-built studio with professional playback. This immediate feedback helped me refine my skills much faster than I expected. I like they have an agency attached!”

AGENCY/REPRESENTATION

Students completing the course will be invited to join our successful Film and TV agency.

Many web casting organisations claim to make you a “STAR” and all less for spotlight deal in low quality work requiring little at best to no talent at worst. Extra work, short/student films, etc are often much more likely to harm your cv than help it, if you really want to get worth while parts. This is in our opinion the only worth while online casting organisation given all the substantial/main parts from Game of Thrones to the main Hollywood Films etc all appear here and generally no where else. If you don’t have the required credits to be on spotlight you can’t apply simple as that; so we work really hard to help you get the required credits.

 

Lastly we really love what we do so you can always be assured of the very best possible experience no matter your level of ability.
